Denny's - The salmon skillet but with chicken yum - Diners Near Me - Oceanside, California

This place gets a solid average 3. The wait for food and service... didn't exist, as other yelpers mentioned. We arrived at approx 11 on a Wednesday and it was an average lunch hour. There was no wait, and half the tables occupied. Our waiter was superb. She was so friendly and very prompt with everything, I would like to say her name was Maria but I am not 100% on that. The food: average Denny's food. Great prices! If you can order of the 2468 menu, do it! Usually it's the same amount of food for a bit less. The shakes: the peanut butter chocolate Sunday was so delicious!! I was very pleased with this chocolatey goodness. The Classic Game at the Entrance: scam! I am so butthurt! I should have had one of those 'despicable me' minions but the darn machine managed to drop my prize right before it got to the drop off! I could have played again, but $1 is my limit and if I can't get it then I don't deserve it! read more

I didn't come back until there were new waiters, and a manager walking around to double check everything. Good call, Denny's. This place went from "Oh lord, I hope those waiters aren't working tonight." to "Let's go to Denny's! Meagan(sp) is a great waiter. She'll definitely take care of us well." There is one more waiter who I can't seem to remember by name, but she does an awesome job as well. Denny's have found keepers. Within the past 2 months the hired a new cook, and boy.. the food comes out quick as it should. I come hear more frequently now. It's possible to be in and out of here within 30 minutes on a good night. Only thing that bothers me is how cold the AC always is, feels like it's around 63. I come in with a jacket no matter what, but it'd be nice to have it around 73 degrees to just be comfy. Now a great restaurant that I look forward to eating at. Great service. Food comes out freshly made. A restaurant that can pull a full 180 and make huge improvements such as this, deserves a 5-star review. I think I've been eating here enough to rate it at such. Keep it up, Denny's on El Camino Real! read more

Good service for a busy location. This Dennys is way better than the San Marcos location. read more

Denny's - Diners Near Me - Oceanside, California

[Caution: Language] As a general rule, because I am a chef myself, I will take into consideration where I'm eating. Denny's hasn't been a norm for since my early high school years, for obvious reasons. That being said, I came in out of necessity and not necessarily as a desire. A quick brunch will do me well before another long shift. Surprisingly, the kitchen here has stepped up their game since I last rolled through here two years ago, and have no complaints to mention in their craft. However, I was distraught to see that the servers were literally RUNNING. Having been a server myself at one point in my life, I know that when I'm running on the floor, for lack of better terms, "shit has hit the fan." Hire more servers, and I'm sure you'll have more regulars. read more

I get take out from this location all the time. Service and food are alway good. If you don't like something they take care of you no hassle. read more

Love their coffee and breakfast menu. I go for either the hearty 9- grain pancake breakfast or the fit slam with a cup of coffee and glass of water. All food servers there are super nice and very helpful. If I ever need a healthy breakfast and a good service I always go to Dennis. read more

This Denny's was the most worst Denny's I've been to ever in my life the service was horrible. First off, me, my mom, and my nephew had to wait an hour for our food. None of the employees were even wearing name tags. Our waitress asked us one time our entire visit if we needed water. _-_ and on top of that she tried telling us she was trying to hide from everyone. Like that's not even cool. At the end idk if it was the manager or maybe even the owner but he tried charger my mom extra. So she sat and told him no. By the end of all this they still gipped us money. Totally slum. Will never go there again. read more

I usually enjoy eating at Denny's when I'm on the road but this one wasn't that good. The service was slow. The waitress kept forgetting our order and the skillet I ordered was too oily and the salmon was too fishy, literally. read more

Denny's was one of our favorite spots as a family but after the experience we had this morning with the "amazing" service and "amazing" food we will no longer make Denny's a spot to eat at ever again. Absolutely no quality and it should be embarrassing to send food out from the kitchen looking/tasting the way it did. Thanks for nothing Denny's, you will never see us again. read more

Guess this is the new being seated by the kitchen or bathroom. Asked the manager for boxes and she didn't bother bringing them out. Food goes too cold sitting outside. Still waiting for a coffee refill and we were brought out our check. read more

Walked in on Thursday lady at register the manager on the phone while a line of people waiting to pay and me and my grandson waiting to be seated and another family. restaurant was not that busy didn't like that they don't have a sense of urgency with customers read more

Everyone seated after us got their food. 50 minutes later and still no food. Understaffed and unnatentive.

All of our breakfast food was over cooked. Even my my eggs were toasted. The waiter's were friendly.

Went to have breakfast there this morning 07/02/18 and the service was really bad. There was no one else waiting to be served and we were ignored. There was a man who came in after us that ordered online to pick up his order that wasn't ready. He was not happy with the service either. He came to pick up his order 10 minutes after the time he was told to come in. They were not busy so I had a hard time understanding why we weren't greeted immediately. When I asked if we could seat ourselves, an older lady working there asked if we could wait a minute. Her response had a tone and at the point I didn't see a reason to eat there. We went to islands instead and I can tell you the customer service and atmosphere was much better. Not going back to Denny's again. read more

Mom and I discovered the Banana Caramel Pecan pancake breakfast has Whole Wheat pancakes with egg whites and fresh fruit! Great flavor and healthy too! The service is still prompt and friendly. Comfortable booths and consistent quality, great location and free parking. read more

I walked in at 3:40 a.m. and I was greeted by Chris who was super professional, happy, and eager to help. Thanks!

Service here is so slow!!! Plan on being here for over an hour.............food is mediocre..but it is Denny's so I suppose it's familiar if nothing else. read more

Went to Denny's because of their promotion for their new Impossible Burger. Guess what, they were out of them at 4:15 in the afternoon! What a big mistake! How can you promote a new item and run out of them 1/2 way through your day? The server was great, she tried to appease us, but could not get any Impossible Burgers! Thanks Dennys!!! read more

This is a very great diner! My grandpa and dad love it. So, Dennys is a five star !! Dominic, age 8. read more

I went with some friends during the dinner rush hour here. The server, Pasqual, and manager, Krystal, were very attentive and customer oriented. The food was just how I ordered it so I didn't mind the 20 minute wait. My glass was refilled promptly and the service was outstanding. Especially for how many tables were full. read more

Not always my first choice for breakfast but it sure is convenient when you've got a car appt at Discount. Shima was my server and she was very friendly and attentive! Quick service and a good breakfast are a great way to start off the day :) read more

Went here for breakfast because the other location had a long wait. When my husband was in line, another customer came in and step aside. When the employee came was to check us in, he looked at the other customer to get his name. My husband was standing right in front of the counter. But my husband stated he was here first. It took our waiter 10 minutes to get our drinks and forgot our initial drink requests. Also, our waiter checked on us, jst for drinks, missing drinks, taking our orders, dropping off our food and the check. read more

This is the WORST Denny's that I have ever been to they have THE SLOWEST service that I've ever experienced!!!! We came here on a Sunday morning around 9:30 to grab some breakfast before church, waiting about 20 min to be seated.... To be expected on a Sunday. Once we were finally seated it took 20 min to even get our drink order taken I had to get the hostesses attention to even get that done, eventually our waitress Ana took our order she's a super sweet older lady, but it still took another 20 min for our food to come....needless to say we missed church the food was normal Denny's fare, but again service sucked they need to get it together! read more

My favorite person Joshua....always gives amazing service. We eat here because of his service. Plus my mother likes. If she like him then we know his restaurant is the place to eat!!! Only if he's working though!!! Thanks Joshua!! read more

Little better than you average Denny's. The food looks a little closer to the pictures on the menu than an average Denny's, and the service was good. The $6 French Toast is my typical order, and they get it right. read more

Barbara was a fantastic server. She had a great attitude and made it a good dining experience.

OMG, never order a milkshake at Denny's to go. You get only half the amount you get when you dine-in and it is the same price. When you dine-in you get your shake in a tall glass plus what is left in the silver canister they make the shake in. When you get it to go, it's in a small to go then topped with whip cream. I feel sorry for the customer who was dining in and ordered a the same kind of shake. He got my other milkshake in a to go cup with no extra in a canister . I called another Denny's and they said that is the way it's done. My sister suggested to order it at the table and then ask that you want it to go. Good suggestion. Don't be cheated out by Denny's. read more

Service was DEPLORABLE! Ignored for 10 minutes after being seated. Another eternity passed before getting drinks. Really gone downhill lately since staff changed. Only saving grace was food was good --when it finally came!!! read more

I 've tried this restaurant twice. Found the manager/hosts personality a zero, thought maybe he was just having a bad day. Tried them agaim last week. When you walk in, no hello, good morning, or welcome to Dennys. You just get a "this way". went he showed me my seat, I thanked him and all I got was a "yeah". And this guy is a part owner!! He could use a class on customer service and manners. next time I'll go to Mimi's down the street. Waittress service was fair read more

The service was excellent as well as the food. Our waitress was so sweet! Always checked on us! And our food came out fast! Ask for barbara!

We had the $6 French Toast, 2 bacon, 2 eggs, hash browns and the Philly Cheese Steak. Both were perfecty cooked, fresh and very tasty. We Enjoyed the meal. For a 24 hour a day chain. We were made to feel welcome and our waitress provided great service. read more

Had a few people dining with me and 2 different orders had to be sent back and one of them had to be sent back 3 times to get it right. Will not be going back read more

Went late night and and Joshua really took care of me. Great service, everything on time and on point, super attentive to details. Just smooth. read more

I've being nice putting two stars the server we got today was rude . She was too worried about going on her break she brought us something we do not ask for and then came back with something else we didn't ask for. And she forgot my eggs which comes with the country friend steak and eggs. And she charges us for the dinner country fried steak . read more

Chrissy Chrissy!!! Yesss she is your server !!!! What a beautiful and caring person inside and out!! I love everything about our lunch because of her !! Denny's you guys need to reward such a great server with fine, pristine service!! She new exactly what I wanted, took the words right out of my mouth ! The food came out quick and she continuously made sure that my drinks were never in need!! Always with a smile and her energy was electric!

This is a great Denny's location. As usual with Denny's the food is good and the prices are great. And they offer a 15% discount if you have an AARP card. Woot! read more

We got seated right away. Friendly server. Only complaint: I asked for no butter or margarin and the girl upfront walked off with my husbands card, served people juice and then came back with his card. Really?? Could have given his card back first? read more

Great service! They always give you alternatives to save money on things hat you may have overlooked. Food came quickly, and we were constantly tended to and cared for. Best Denny's I have ever been to by far!!! Totally recommended! read more
